POE Switches

EdgeSwitch is targeted at the ISP, carrier, and broadband market. While UniFi is targeted at small and medium-sized businesses. UniFi switches are easier to use and configure on the UniFi software platform built into the UniFi controller. UniFi switches also feature user convenience design features such as fan-less, quiet fan and slim bodies.

EdgeSwitch is a high-performance PoE+ Gigabit Ethernet switch with intelligent switching. The EdgeSwitch offers advanced Layer-2 switching protocols and Layer-3 routing features. Providing total non-blocking throughput. The EdgeSwitch features compatibility with SFP and SFT+ ports, with uplink speeds of 1Gbps and 10Gbps respectfully.

UniFi switches share several features with EdgeSwitch and is an improvement on the same. UniFi switches are high-performance non-blocking high throughput Gigabit switches. With fully managed PoE+ for 802.3af/at and 24 volts passive PoE devices.

UniFi switches are developed in these port and throughput configurations:

8- Port Up to 10 Gbps (2 SFT ports)

16-Port Up to 18 Gbps (2 SFT ports)

24-Port Up to 26 Gbps (2 SFT ports)

48-Port Up to 70 Gbps (2 SFT ports, 2 SFT+ ports)

ToughSwitch is a layer-2 managed switch with passive PoE capability. The switch is available in 5 port, 8 port and 16 port configurations with moderate a performance delivering at speeds of up to 1Gbps.

ToughSwitch is an earlier model of Ubiquiti switches. Newer switches – EdgeSwitch and UniFi with better performance and more feature are replacing the ToughSwitch in high demand network applications.
